Question 7 • World History

The Abbasid Dynasty was known for

Answer
A
building their capital at Jerusalem.
B
accepting converts to Islam as equals.
C
focusing on expansion in the West.
D
being quickly conquered by the Mongols.

Explanation

The Abbasids are known for treating converts to Islam, including non-Arabs, more equally than the earlier Umayyad rulers had. This helped make the Islamic community more inclusive. The other choices do not describe the dynasty: its capital was Baghdad, not Jerusalem, and the Mongols conquered Baghdad in 1258, centuries after the Abbasids came to power.
